MXR Distortion Sounds Great

Charlie	MXR Distortion Sounds Great Hey all, I just recently finished building the MXR Dist+ project off of JD Sleep's excellent site. It took me two tries, because the first time I (Like a typical beginner) laid out the IC backwards. When I tried it again I got that satisfying crunch when I hooked up the battery. The distortion sounds great, I think it sounds a lot like classic 70's rock distortion. You all ought to check it out if you haven't already--nice project. Charlie
